Description
- This application claims the benefit of priority of United States provisional application No.
60/943,731, filed June 13, 2007 - The present invention is directed to substituted piperazine and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, the chemical synthesis thereof, and medical use of such compounds for the treatment and/or management of angina, intermittent claudication, ischemia, and/or any disorder ameliorated by modulating late Na+ channels.
-
- Ranolazine (Ranexa®), N-(2,6-dimethyl-phenyl)-2-{4-[2-hydroxy-3-(2-methoxy-phenoxy)-propyl]-piperazin-1-yl}-acetamide, is indicated for treating chronic stable angina. Ranolazine improves left ventricular diastolic function in patients with ischemic heart disease (Hayashida W, et al., Cardiovasc Drugs Ther 1994, 8, 741-7). Ranolazine is a selective inhibitor of late Na+ channels ( Pharmacotherapy 2007, 27(12), 1659-1676). At therapeutic concentrations (up to 10 µmol/L), ranolazine selectively inhibits late sodium current (INa ) with an IC50 of 5-21 µmol/L. (Antzelevitch C, et al., J Cardiovasc Pharmacol Therapeut 2004, 9(suppl 1), S65-83). At therapeutic plasma concentrations, ranolazine does not significantly inhibit late I Na in healthy myocytes (nonischemic and/or nonfailing myocytes), but does significantly inhibit late I Na in ischemic or failing myocytes in which the current is amplified and problematic. By inhibiting late INa, there is an overall reduction in intracellular Na+. The reduction in intracellular Na+ contributes to a reduction in the magnitude of ischemia-induced Ca2+ overload, and improves myocardial function as well as myocardial perfusion (Belardinelli L, et al., Eur Heart J 2004, Suppl. 6, 13-7; Antzelevitch C, et al. Circulation 2004, 110, 904-10; Wu L, et al., J Pharmacol Exp Ther 2004, 310, 599-605). Ranolazine produces this anti-ischemic effect whithout significantly altering either heart rate, blood pressure, or increase the rate-pressure product. Ranolazine at high doses is reported to shift ATP production away from fatty acid oxidation and towards glucose oxidation, thereby reducing lactic acid production and tissue acidosis (Tian et al, Journal of Chromatography B, 2007, 846, 346-50; McCormack, Biochemical Society Transactions 2006, 34(2), 238-42; Jerling, Clinical Pharmacokinetics 2006, 45(5), 469-91; Jerling et al, Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics 2005, 78(3), 288-97; Abdallah et al, The Journal of Clinical Pharmacology 2005, 45, 802-09; Chaitman et al, Journal of the Americal College of Cardiology 2004, 43(8), 1375-82; Opie, European Heart Journal 2003, 24, 1854-56; Anderson et al, Heart Disease 2001, 3, 263-69; Zacharowski et al, European Journal of Pharmacology 2001, 418, 105-10; McCormack et al, General Pharmacology 1998, 30(5), 639-45).

- The term "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier," "pharmaceutically acceptable excipient," "physiologically acceptable carrier," or "physiologically acceptable excipient" refers to a pharmaceutically-acceptable material, composition, or vehicle, such as a liquid or solid filler, diluent, excipient, solvent, or encapsulating material. Each component must be "pharmaceutically acceptable" in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of a pharmaceutical formulation. It must also be suitable for use in contact with the tissue or organ of humans and animals without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response, immunogenecity, or other problems or complications, commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio.

- The term "deuterium enrichment" refers to the percentage of incorporation of deuterium at a given position in a molecule in the place of hydrogen. For example, deuterium enrichment of 1% at a given position means that 1% of molecules in a given sample contain deuterium at the specified position. Because the naturally occurring distribution of deuterium is about 0.0156%, deuterium enrichment at any position in a compound synthesized using non-enriched starting materials is about 0.0156%. The deuterium enrichment can be determined using conventional analytical methods, such as mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
- The term "is/are deuterium," when used to describe a given position in a molecule such as R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7, R8, R9, R10, R11, R12, R13, R14, R15, R16, R17, R18, R19, R20, R21, R22, R23, R24, R25, R26, R27, R28, R29, R30, R31, R32, and R33 or the symbol "D," when used to represent a given position in a drawing of a molecular structure, means that the specified position is enriched with deuterium above the naturally occurring distribution of deuterium. In an embodiment deuterium enrichment is of no less than about 1%, in another no less than about 5%, in another no less than about 10%, in another no less than about 20%, in another no less than about 50%, in another no less than about 70%, in another no less than about 80%, in another no less than about 90%, or in another no less than about 98% of deuterium at the specified position.
- The term "isotopic enrichment" refers to the percentage of incorporation of a less prevalent isotope of an element at a given position in a molecule in the place of the more prevalent isotope of the element.
- The term "non-isotopically enriched" refers to a molecule in which the percentages of the various isotopes are substantially the same as the naturally occurring percentages.
- The terms "substantially pure" and "substantially homogeneous" mean sufficiently homogeneous to appear free of readily detectable impurities as determined by standard analytical methods, including, but not limited to, thin layer chromatography (TLC), gel electrophoresis, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and mass spectrometry (MS); or sufficiently pure such that further purification would not detectably alter the physical and chemical properties, or biological and pharmacological properties, such as enzymatic and biological activities, of the substance. In certain embodiments, "substantially pure" or "substantially homogeneous" refers to a collection of molecules, wherein at least about 50%, at least about 70%, at least about 80%, at least about 90%, at least about 95%, at least about 98%, at least about 99%, or at least about 99.5% of the molecules are a single compound, including a racemic mixture or single stereoisomer thereof, as determined by standard analytical methods.
- The term "about" or "approximately" means an acceptable error for a particular value, which depends in part on how the value is measured or determined. In certain embodiments, "about" can mean 1 or more standard deviations.
- The terms "active ingredient" and "active substance" refer to a compound, which is administered, alone or in combination with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients and/or carriers, to a subject for treating, preventing, or ameliorating one or more symptoms of a disorder.
- The terms "drug," "therapeutic agent," and "chemotherapeutic agent" refer to a compound, or a pharmaceutical composition thereof, which is administered to a subject for treating, preventing, or ameliorating one or more symptoms of a disorder.
- The term "disorder" as used herein is intended to be generally synonymous, and is used interchangeably with, the terms "disease," "sydrome" and "condition" (as in medical condition), in that all reflect an abnormal condition of the body or of one of its parts that impairs normal functioning and is typically manifested by distinguishing signs and symptoms.
- The term "release controlling excipient" refers to an excipient whose primary function is to modify the duration or place of release of the active substance from a dosage form as compared with a conventional immediate release dosage form.
- The term "nonrelease controlling excipient" refers to an excipient whose primary function do not include modifying the duration or place of release of the active substance from a dosage form as compared with a conventional immediate release dosage form.
- The term "protecting group" or "removable protecting group" refers to a group which, when bound to a functionality, such as the oxygen atom of a hydroxyl or carboxyl group, or the nitrogen atom of an amino group, prevents reactions from occurring at that functional group, and which can be removed by a conventional chemical or enzymatic step to reestablish the functional group (Greene and Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 3rd Ed., John Wiley & Sons, New York, NY, 1999).
- The term "late Na+ channel-mediated disorder" refers to a disorder that is characterized by abnormal or undesired late INa, that, when the late Na+ channel activity is modified, leads to the desired responses depending on the route of administration and desired end result. A late Na+ channel-mediated disorder may be completely or partially mediated through modulating late Na+ channels. In particular, a late Na+ channel-mediated disorder is one in which modulation of the late Na+ channel activity results in some effect on the underlying disorder, e.g., modulating late Na+ channels results in some improvement in at least some of the patients being treated.
- The term "late Na+ channel modulator," as used herein is intended to be generally synonymous, and is used interchangeably with "modulation of late Na+ channels" or "modulating late Na+ channels," and refers to the ability of a compound disclosed herein to alter the function of late Na+ channels. A modulator may activate the activity of a late Na+ channel, may activate or inhibit the activity of a late Na+ channel depending on the concentration of the compound exposed to the late Na+ channel, or may inhibit the activity of a late Na+ channel. Such activation or inhibition may be contingent on the occurrence of a specific event, such as activation of a signal transduction pathway, and/or may be manifest only in particular cell types, such as myocytes. The term "late Na+ channel modulator" also refers to altering the function of a late Na+ channel by increasing or decreasing the probability that a complex forms between a late Na+ channel receptor and a late Na+ channel regulator, such as a protein kinase. A late Na+ channel modulator may increase the probability that such a complex forms between the late Na+ channel and the late Na+ channel regulator, may increase or decrease the probability that a complex forms between the late Na+ channel and the late Na+ channel regulator depending on the concentration of the compound exposed to the late Na+ channel, and or may decrease the probability that a complex forms between the late Na+ channel and the late Na+ channel regulator.
- The term "iodinating reagent" refers to a reactive chemical reagent used in iodination reactions, whereby iodine is transferred to a substrate. Examples of iodinating agents include, but are not limited to, iodine monochloride, N-iodosuccinimide, 1-Iodobutane, 2-Iodo-1,1,1-trifluoroethane, ammonium iodide, calcium iodate, cuprous iodide, ethylenediamine dihydriodide (EDDI), ferrous iodide, hydriodic acid, iodic acid, iodine, iodobenzene diacetate, iodoethane, iodoform, iodotrimethylsilane, lithium iodide, methyl iodide, potassium iodate, potassium iodide, sodium iodide, sodium metaperiodate, sodium selenite, thymol iodide, and trimethyl sulfoxonium iodide.
- In an attempt to eliminate foreign substances, such as therapeutic agents, from its circulation system, the animal body expresses various enzymes, such as the cytochrome P450 enzymes or CYPs, esterases, proteases, reductases, dehydrogenases, and monoamine oxidases, to react with and convert these foreign substances to more polar intermediates or metabolites for renal excretion. Some of the most common metabolic reactions of pharmaceutical compounds involve the oxidation of a carbon-hydrogen (C-H) bond to either a carbon-oxygen (C-O) or carbon-carbon (C-C) π-bond. The resultant metabolites may be stable or unstable under physiological conditions, and can have substantially different pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, and acute and long-term toxicity profiles relative to the parent compounds. For most drugs, such oxidations are generally rapid and ultimately lead to administration of multiple or high daily doses.
- The relationship between the activation energy and the rate of reaction may be quantified by the Arrhenius equation, k = Ae-Eact/RT, where Eact is the activation energy, T is temperature, R is the molar gas constant, k is the rate constant for the reaction, and A (the frequency factor) is a constant specific to each reaction that depends on the probability that the molecules will collide with the correct orientation. The Arrhenius equation states that the fraction of molecules that have enough energy to overcome an energy barrier, that is, those with energy at least equal to the activation energy, depends exponentially on the ratio of the activation energy to thermal energy (RT), the average amount of thermal energy that molecules possess at a certain temperature.
- The transition state in a reaction is a short lived state (on the order of 10-14 sec) along the reaction pathway during which the original bonds have stretched to their limit. By definition, the activation energy Eact for a reaction is the energy required to reach the transition state of that reaction. Reactions that involve multiple steps will necessarily have a number of transition states, and in these instances, the activation energy for the reaction is equal to the energy difference between the reactants and the most unstable transition state. Once the transition state is reached, the molecules can either revert, thus reforming the original reactants, or the new bonds form giving rise to the products. This dichotomy is possible because both pathways, forward and reverse, result in the release of energy. A catalyst facilitates a reaction process by lowering the activation energy leading to a transition state. Enzymes are examples of biological catalysts that reduce the energy necessary to achieve a particular transition state.
- A carbon-hydrogen bond is by nature a covalent chemical bond. Such a bond forms when two atoms of similar electronegativity share some of their valence electrons, thereby creating a force that holds the atoms together. This force or bond strength can be quantified and is expressed in units of energy, and as such, covalent bonds between various atoms can be classified according to how much energy must be applied to the bond in order to break the bond or separate the two atoms.
- The bond strength is directly proportional to the absolute value of the ground-state vibrational energy of the bond. This vibrational energy, which is also known as the zero-point vibrational energy, depends on the mass of the atoms that form the bond. The absolute value of the zero-point vibrational energy increases as the mass of one or both of the atoms making the bond increases. Since deuterium (D) is two-fold more massive than hydrogen (H), it follows that a C-D bond is stronger than the corresponding C-H bond. Compounds with C-D bonds are frequently indefinitely stable in H2O, and have been widely used for isotopic studies. If a C-H bond is broken during a rate-determining step in a chemical reaction (i.e. the step with the highest transition state energy), then substituting a deuterium for that hydrogen will cause a decrease in the reaction rate and the process will slow down. This phenomenon is known as the Deuterium Kinetic Isotope Effect (DKIE) and can range from about 1 (no isotope effect) to very large numbers, such as 50 or more, meaning that the reaction can be fifty, or more, times slower when deuterium is substituted for hydrogen. High DKIE values may be due in part to a phenomenon known as tunneling, which is a consequence of the uncertainty principle. Tunneling is ascribed to the small size of a hydrogen atom, and occurs because transition states involving a proton can sometimes form in the absence of the required activation energy. A deuterium is larger and statistically has a much lower probability of undergoing this phenomenon. Substitution of tritium for hydrogen results in yet a stronger bond than deuterium and gives numerically larger isotope effects.
- Discovered in 1932 by Urey, deuterium (D) is a stable and non-radioactive isotope of hydrogen. It was the first isotope to be separated from its element in pure form and is twice as massive as hydrogen, and makes up about 0.02% of the total mass of hydrogen (in this usage meaning all hydrogen isotopes) on earth. When two deuteriums bond with one oxygen, deuterium oxide (D2O or "heavy water") is formed. D2O looks and tastes like H2O, but has different physical properties. It boils at 101.41 °C and freezes at 3.79 °C. Its heat capacity, heat of fusion, heat of vaporization, and entropy are all higher than H2O. It is also more viscous and is not as powerful a solvent as H2O.
- When pure D2O is given to rodents, it is readily absorbed and reaches an equilibrium level that is usually about eighty percent of the concentration of what was consumed. The quantity of deuterium required to induce toxicity is extremely high. When 0% to as much as 15% of the body water has been replaced by D2O, animals are healthy but are unable to gain weight as fast as the control (untreated) group. When about 15% to about 20% of the body water has been replaced with D2O, the animals become excitable. When about 20% to about 25% of the body water has been replaced with D2O, the animals are so excitable that they go into frequent convulsions when stimulated. Skin lesions, ulcers on the paws and muzzles, and necrosis of the tails appear. The animals also become very aggressive; males becoming almost unmanageable. When about 30%, of the body water has been replaced with D2O, the animals refuse to eat and become comatose. Their body weight drops sharply and their metabolic rates drop far below normal, with death occurring at about 30 to about 35% replacement with D2O. The effects are reversible unless more than thirty percent of the previous body weight has been lost due to D2O. Studies have also shown that the use of D2O can delay the growth of cancer cells and enhance the cytotoxicity of certain antineoplastic agents.
- Tritium (T) is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen, used in research, fusion reactors, neutron generators and radiopharmaceuticals. Mixing tritium with a phosphor provides a continuous light source, a technique that is commonly used in wristwatches, compasses, rifle sights and exit signs. It was discovered by Rutherford, Oliphant and Harteck in 1934, and is produced naturally in the upper atmosphere when cosmic rays react with H2 molecules. Tritium is a hydrogen atom that has 2 neutrons in the nucleus and has an atomic weight close to 3. It occurs naturally in the environment in very low concentrations, most commonly found as T2O, a colorless and odorless liquid. Tritium decays slowly (half-life = 12.3 years) and emits a low energy beta particle that cannot penetrate the outer layer of human skin. Internal exposure is the main hazard associated with this isotope, yet it must be ingested in large amounts to pose a significant health risk. As compared with deuterium, a lesser amount of tritium must be consumed before it reaches a hazardous level.
- Deuteration of pharmaceuticals to improve pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and toxicity profiles, has been demonstrated previously with some classes of drugs. For example, DKIE was used to decrease the hepatotoxicity of halothane by presumably limiting the production of reactive species such as trifluoroacetyl chloride. However, this method may not be applicable to all drug classes. For example, deuterium incorporation can lead to metabolic switching which may even give rise to an oxidative intermediate with a faster off-rate from an activating Phase I enzyme (e.g., cytochrome P450 3A4). The concept of metabolic switching asserts that xenogens, when sequestered by Phase I enzymes, may bind transiently and re-bind in a variety of conformations prior to the chemical reaction (e.g., oxidation). This hypothesis is supported by the relatively vast size of binding pockets in many Phase I enzymes and the promiscuous nature of many metabolic reactions. Metabolic switching can potentially lead to different proportions of known metabolites as well as altogether new metabolites. This new metabolic profile may impart more or less toxicity. Such pitfalls are non-obvious and have not been heretofore sufficiently predictable a priori for any drug class.
- Ranolazine is a substituted piperazine-based late Na+ channel modulator. The carbon-hydrogen bonds of ranolazine contain a naturally occurring distribution of hydrogen isotopes, namely 1H or protium (about 99.9844%), 2H or deuterium (about 0.0156%), and 3H or tritium (in the range between about 0.5 and 67 tritium atoms per 1018 protium atoms). Increased levels of deuterium incorporation may produce a detectable Kinetic Isotope Effect (KIE) that could affect the pharmacokinetic, pharmacologic and/or toxicologic profiles of late Na+ channel modulators in comparison with the compound having naturally occurring levels of deuterium.
- Ranolazine is known to inhibit the polymorphic CYP2D6 and CYP3A enzymes. Ranolzine, therefore, can cause drug-drug interactions that are not, a priori, predictable on a per patient basis. With a half-life of less than two hours, ranolazine must be taken frequently. Even extended-release ranolazine formulations have to be taken twice daily. Further, it is quite typical for disorders ameliorated by the compounds disclosed herein, such as angina, intermittent claudication, and/or ischemia, to produce chronic symptoms which are best medicated around the clock. Additionally, it is quite typical for medicines to produce highly undesireable withdrawal effects upon discontinuation.
- The main metabolite of ranolazine in humans may result from the oxidation of the methylene group adjacent to the aryl oxygen. The resultant metabolite may further break down to the catechol or a variant thereof, which can be further transformed into a reactive ortho quinone. Ortho quinones may be expected to produce hepato- and other toxicities. Other positions of ranzolazine that are also susceptible to enzymatic oxidation include the C-H bonds of the methylenes alpha to the piperazinyl ring nitrogens as well as the C-H bonds of the methoxy group. These transformations, mediated by P450 enzymes or through other oxidative processes, can account for ranzoline's short half-life. These metabolites have as-yet-unknown pharmacology/toxicology. Limiting the production of such metabolites has the potential to decrease the danger of the administration of such drugs and may even allow increased dosage and concomitant increased efficacy.
- Various deuteration patterns can be used to a) reduce or eliminate unwanted metabolites, b) increase the half-life of the parent drug, c) decrease the number of doses needed to achieve a desired effect, d) decrease the amount of a dose needed to achieve a desired effect, e) increase the formation of active metabolites, if any are formed, and/or f) decrease the production of deleterious metabolites in specific tissues and/or create a more effective drug and/or a safer drug for polypharmacy, whether the polypharmacy be intentional or not. The deuteration approach has strong potential to slow the metabolism via various oxidative mechanisms and attenuate interpatient variatabilty.

- The deuterated compound as disclosed herein may also contain less prevalent isotopes for other elements, including, but not limited to, 13C or 14C for carbon, 15N for nitrogen, and 17O or 18O for oxygen.
- In one embodiment, the deuterated compounds disclosed herein maintain the beneficial aspects of the corresponding non-isotopically enriched molecules while substantially increasing the maximum tolerated dose, decreasing toxicity, increasing the half-life (T1/2), lowering the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of the minimum efficacious dose (MED), lowering the efficacious dose and thus decreasing the non-mechanism-related toxicity, and/or lowering the probability of drug-drug interactions.
- Isotopic hydrogen can be introduced into a compound of a compound disclosed herein as disclosed herein by synthetic techniques that employ deuterated reagents, whereby incorporation rates are pre-determined; and/or by exchange techniques, wherein incorporation rates are determined by equilibrium conditions, and may be highly variable depending on the reaction conditions. Synthetic techniques, where tritium or deuterium is directly and specifically inserted by tritiated or deuterated reagents of known isotopic content, may yield high tritium or deuterium abundance, but can be limited by the chemistry required. In addition, the molecule being labeled may be changed, depending upon the severity of the synthetic reaction employed. Exchange techniques, on the other hand, may yield lower tritium or deuterium incorporation, often with the isotope being distributed over many sites on the molecule, but offer the advantage that they do not require separate synthetic steps and are less likely to disrupt the structure of the molecule being labeled.
- The compounds as disclosed herein can be prepared by methods known to one of skill in the art and routine modifications thereof, and/or following procedures similar to those described in the Example section herein and routine modifications thereof, and/or procedures found in
US 4,567,264 andWO2006/008753 , and references cited therein and routine modifications thereof. Compounds as disclosed herein can also be prepared as shown in any of the following schemes and routine modifications thereof. -
- Methoxyphenol 1 reacts with epichlorohydrin 2 in the presence of a base, such as sodium hydroxide, and in an appropriate solvent, such as water and dioxane or mixture thereof, at an elevated temperature to afford oxirane 3, which reacts with piperazine 4 in an appropriate solvent, such as methanol, to give amino alcohol 5. Acid chloride 6 reacts with aniline 7 in the presence of a base, such as triethylamine, and in an appropriate solvent, such as dichloromethane, to give amide 8, which reacts with compound 5 in the presence of an appropriate catalyst, such as sodium iodide or potassium iodide, a base, such as potassium carbonate, in an appropriate solvent, such as dimethylformamide, to afford piperazine 9 of Formula I.
- Deuterium can be incorporated to different positions synthetically, according to the synthetic procedures as shown in Scheme 1, by using appropriate deuterated intermediates. For example, to introduce deuterium at one or more positions selected from R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7, R8, and R9, 2,6-dimethylaniline with the corresponding deuterium substitutions can be used. To introduce deuterium at one or more positions selected from R11 and R12, chloroacetyl chloride with the corresponding deuterium substitutions can be used. To introduce deuterium at one or more positions of R13, R14, R15, R16, R17, R18, R19, and R20, piperazine with the corresponding deuterium substitutions can be used. To introduce deuterium at one or more positions of R21, R22, R23, R25, and R26, epichlorohydrin with the corresponding deuterium substitutions can be used. To introduce deuterium at one or more positions of R27, R28, R29, R30, R31, R32, and R33, 2-methoxyphenol with the corresponding deuterium substitutions can be used. These deuterated intermediates are either commercially available, or can be prepared by methods known to one of skill in the art or following procedures similar to those described in the Example section herein and routine modifications thereof.
- Deuterium can also be incorporated to various positions having an exchangeable proton, such as the amine and hydroxyl protons, via proton-deuterium equilibrium exchange. To introduce deuterium at R10 and R24, these protons may be replaced with deuterium selectively or non-selectively through a proton-deuterium exchange method known in the art.
- It is to be understood that the compounds disclosed herein may contain one or more chiral centers, chiral axes, and/or chiral planes, as described in "Stereochemistry of Carbon Compounds" Eliel and Wilen, John Wiley & Sons, New York, 1994, pp. 1119-1190. Such chiral centers, chiral axes, and chiral planes may be of either the (R) or (S) configuration, or may be a mixture thereof.
- Another method for characterizing a composition containing a compound having at least one chiral center is by the effect of the composition on a beam of polarized light. When a beam of plane polarized light is passed through a solution of a chiral compound, the plane of polarization of the light that emerges is rotated relative to the original plane. This phenomenon is known as optical activity, and compounds that rotate the plane of polarized light are said to be optically active. One enantiomer of a compound will rotate the beam of polarized light in one direction, and the other enantiomer will rotate the beam of light in the opposite direction. The enantiomer that rotates the polarized light in the clockwise direction is the (+) enantiomer, and the enantiomer that rotates the polarized light in the counterclockwise direction is the (-) enantiomer. Included within the scope of the compositions described herein are compositions containing between 0 and 100% of the (+) and/or (-) enantiomer of compounds disclosed herein.
- Where a compound as disclosed herein contains an alkenyl or alkenylene group, the compound may exist as one or mixture of geometric cis/trans (or Z/E) isomers. Where structural isomers are interconvertible via a low energy barrier, the compound disclosed herein may exist as a single tautomer or a mixture of tautomers. This can take the form of proton tautomerism in the compound disclosed herein that contains for example, an imino, keto, or oxime group; or so-called valence tautomerism in the compound that contain an aromatic moiety. It follows that a single compound may exhibit more than one type of isomerism.
- The compounds disclosed herein may be enantiomerically pure, such as a single enantiomer or a single diastereomer, or be stereoisomeric mixtures, such as a mixture of enantiomers, a racemic mixture, or a diastereomeric mixture. As such, one of skill in the art will recognize that administration of a compound in its (R) form is equivalent, for compounds that undergo epimerization in vivo, to administration of the compound in its (S) form. Conventional techniques for the preparation/isolation of individual enantiomers include chiral synthesis from a suitable optically pure precursor or resolution of the racemate using, for example, chiral chromatography, recrystallization, resolution, diastereomeric salt formation, or derivatization into diastereomeric adducts followed by separation.
- When the compound disclosed herein contains an acidic or basic moiety, it may also disclosed as a pharmaceutically acceptable salt (See, Berge et al., J. Pharm. Sci. 1977, 66, 1-19; and "Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts, Properties, and Use," Stah and Wermuth, Ed.; Wiley-VCH and VHCA, Zurich, 2002).
- Suitable acids for use in the preparation of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, acetic acid, 2,2-dichloroacetic acid, acylated amino acids, adipic acid, alginic acid, ascorbic acid, L-aspartic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, benzoic acid, 4-acetamidobenzoic acid, boric acid, (+)-camphoric acid, camphorsulfonic acid, (+)-(1S)-camphor-10-sulfonic acid, capric acid, caproic acid, caprylic acid, cinnamic acid, citric acid, cyclamic acid, cyclohexanesulfamic acid, dodecylsulfuric acid, ethane-1,2-disulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, 2-hydroxy-ethanesulfonic acid, formic acid, fumaric acid, galactaric acid, gentisic acid, glucoheptonic acid, D-gluconic acid, D-glucuronic acid, L-glutamic acid, α-oxo-glutaric acid, glycolic acid, hippuric acid, hydrobromic acid, hydrochloric acid, hydroiodic acid, (+)-L-lactic acid, (±)-DL-lactic acid, lactobionic acid, lauric acid, maleic acid, (-)-L-malic acid, malonic acid, (±)-DL-mandelic acid, methanesulfonic acid, naphthalene-2-sulfonic acid, naphthalene-1,5-disulfonic acid, 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid, nicotinic acid, nitric acid, oleic acid, orotic acid, oxalic acid, palmitic acid, pamoic acid, perchloric acid, phosphoric acid, L-pyroglutamic acid, saccharic acid, salicylic acid, 4-amino-salicylic acid, sebacic acid, stearic acid, succinic acid, sulfuric acid, tannic acid, (+)-L-tartaric acid, thiocyanic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, undecylenic acid, and valeric acid.
- Suitable bases for use in the preparation of pharmaceutically acceptable salts, including, but not limited to, inorganic bases, such as magnesium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, zinc hydroxide, or sodium hydroxide; and organic bases, such as primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary, aliphatic and aromatic amines, including L-arginine, benethamine, benzathine, choline, deanol, diethanolamine, diethylamine, dimethylamine, dipropylamine, diisopropylamine, 2-(diethylamino)-ethanol, ethanolamine, ethylamine, ethylenediamine, isopropylamine, N-methyl-glucamine, hydrabamine, 1H-imidazole, L-lysine, morpholine, 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-morpholine, methylamine, piperidine, piperazine, propylamine, pyrrolidine, 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-pyrrolidine, pyridine, quinuclidine, quinoline, isoquinoline, secondary amines, triethanolamine, trimethylamine, triethylamine, N-methyl-D-glucamine, 2-amino-2-(hydroxymethyl)-1,3-propanediol, and tromethamine.
- The compound as disclosed herein may also be designed as a prodrug, which is a functional derivative of the compound as disclosed herein and is readily convertible into the parent compound in vivo. Prodrugs are often useful because, in some situations, they may be easier to administer than the parent compound. They may, for instance, be bioavailable by oral administration whereas the parent compound is not. The prodrug may also have enhanced solubility in pharmaceutical compositions over the parent compound. A prodrug may be converted into the parent drug by various mechanisms, including enzymatic processes and metabolic hydrolysis.

- Osmotic agents of different dissolution rates may be employed to influence how rapidly the active ingredient(s) is initially delivered from the dosage form. For example, amorphous sugars, such as Mannogeme EZ (SPI Pharma, Lewes, DE) can be used to provide faster delivery during the first couple of hours to promptly produce the desired therapeutic effect, and gradually and continually release of the remaining amount to maintain the desired level of therapeutic or prophylactic effect over an extended period of time. In this case, the active ingredient(s) is released at such a rate to replace the amount of the active ingredient metabolized and excreted.
